Submissions for the 2017 Next Link Project are now open and 2017 Grand Jury announced

The New York Musical Festival (NYMF), is now accepting submissions for the 2017 Next Link Project.

The Next Link Project is the cornerstone of NYMF’s Programming. Submissions are open to any writer, produced or unproduced, with or without agency representation. Next Link shows receive entrepreneurial training, networking opportunities, and dramaturgical support, culminating in a subsidized production in the Festival. To submit a show, you must have a finished script and at least 75% of the songs recorded. All entries undergo double-blind evaluations by members of NYMF's reading committee, with finalists reviewed by our Grand Jury of industry professionals. Approximately 10 shows are chosen each year.

The 2017 Next Link Project submissions are now open. Submissions will be accepted through Tuesday, November 1st. Those who submit materials by Monday, October 10th will receive an early bird discount of $20 off the standard $75 application fee.
